Abstract

The years from 1949 to 1959, in the process of exploring the " scientific acupuncture and moxibustion" , the Chinese medicine community experienced three historical stages in the understanding of meridian theory, namely, the initial " de-meridianization of meridians" , the mid-term " Pavlovization " and the final "back to the origin" .

The history has finally proved that the meridian theory is one of the important components of TCM theory which cannot be neglected.
